EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph, titled "Vaudeville Act 4: Bumbery Blads & Cie, Plastic Poses" transports us back to the vibrant world of early 20th-century Austrian entertainment. Created in 1907 by Moritz Jung, this colorful print showcases the talent and artistry of a vaudeville act that captivated audiences with their unique performance. Intriguingly composed, the image features a group of men and women posing in various plastic poses - an innovative display of physicality and flexibility. The lithotint technique employed by Jung brings out the vividness of their bodies against a backdrop reminiscent of German graphic design from that era. Led by Nikolaus Burger and Simon Molzlagl, two prominent figures in Austrian vaudeville at the time, Bumbery Blads & Cie mesmerized spectators with their daring acrobatics and graceful movements. This print serves as both a testament to their skillful performances and an homage to the rich heritage of variety shows during this period. Preserved within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this artwork offers viewers a glimpse into not only Austria's cultural history but also the evolution of lithography as an artistic medium. Through its striking portrayal of nakedness and nudity, it challenges societal norms while celebrating human form as an expressive tool for storytelling. Moritz Jung's masterful creation continues to inspire awe even over a century later. It stands as a testament to his artistic prowess and serves as a reminder that
